PULSE GRIPS

Place the palm of your hands directly on the grip pulse handlebars. Both hands must grip the bars for your 

heart rate to register. It takes 5 consecutive heart beats (15-20 seconds) for your heart rate to register. When 

gripping the pulse handlebars, do not grip tightly. Holding the grips tightly may elevate your blood pressure. 

Keep  a  loose,  cupping  hold.  You  may  experience  an  erratic  readout  if  consistently  holding  the  grip  pulse 

handlebars. Make sure to clean the pulse sensors to ensure proper contact can be maintained.

HEART RATE

WIRELESS CHEST TRANSMITTER

Prior  to  wearing  the  wireless  chest  transmitter  on  your 

chest, moisten the two rubber electrodes with water. Center 

the chest strap just below the breast or pectoral muscles, 

directly over your sternum, with the logo facing out. 

NOTE:

 

The chest strap must be tight and properly placed to receive 

an accurate and consistent readout. If the chest strap is too 

loose, or positioned improperly, you may receive an erratic 

or  inconsistent  heart  rate  readout.

  WARNING!

  The  heart 

rate function is not a medical device. Various factors may 

affect the accuracy of your heart rate reading. The heart rate 

reading is intended only as an exercise aid.
